iPhone is also "made" or rather...assembled in china with some parts from korea

(not designed ofcourse)
In fact, these "china iphones" is made in a similar way as the original iPhone, just that it was designed differently. And no, most of the time it was not the Chinese who designed these "china iphones". Hiphone is one example.
Now after being said that, is there a need for the original iPhones anymore? Fab?

Face it, the functionalities are all the same...you can achieve and meet the same end. You decide.
